Sending Love

Hi Bloggers.

Here's today's card.

For the background, I popped some Double Sided Self Adhesive Sheet onto some card. I only peeled off half of the backing to begin with. I dusted the Elegance Border Mask with my Anti Static Bag and placed it along one edge of the sticky area. I added Sahara Gold Polished Silk Glitter, really rubbing it in so that it was smooth and wouldn't shed. I removed the mask and then added Rose Copper Polished Silk Glitter, again rubbing it into the adhesive. I peeled away the adhesive and repeated the process .

I stamped the sentiment from the Justrite Sympathy Vintage Labels Stamp Set using Raisin Adirondack Dye Ink and added Cosmic Shimmer Clear Embossing Powder. I did not heat set just yet. I stamped the frame around the image, again using Raisin Adirondack and added Clear Powder then heat set. I cut out using Justrite Vintage Label & Banner Dies and inked through the die with Caramel Adirondack Dye Ink.

I made a flower using Heartfelt Creations Tattered Blossoms Stamps and Dies, stamping with Raisin Adirondack and embossing with Clear Powder. I cut some leaves out of tan card using Spellbinders Foliage Die Set and inked through the die with Caramel Adirondack.

I assembled the card as shown adding some White pearls and some dots of Cosmic Shimmer Pearlescent PVA in Olympic Gold around the edges.

Thanks for stopping by.

Julia.

  18. Morning Julia,
    Beautiful flower, the vintage label dies are not one that I would buy don't like the shape very much, but others could be used to get the same effect. Thanks for the inspiration.

  29. H Julia, great card! The first time I tried the mask/glitter/sticky sheet technique after you showed it on tv and the products had arrived, i forgot to use the anti-static bag on the mask. Oh my... I ruined the card trying to remove the mask and it took ages to get all the sticky off the mask. LOL! You only do these things once!
